i think this has the best display than wildfire and x10mini..because x10mini has small screen and wildfire has same resolution as galaxy 5 but bigger screen so the icons is stretch out..galaxy 5 has 16m color but this site says it has only 256k colors..can this phone hold up to 32gb?

@ beckyshells
You can place a shortcut of sound and display settings on your homescreen to manually set the vibration.

some notes on it:
-it does have swype and live wallpapers
-it can run apps that are made for HVGA screens fine(which is the most popular screen size there is for android) on a downscaled version..even WQVGA and WVGA but of course expect the lag and cropping.
- i ran a Quadrant Benchmark for it and scored 503 which is above xperia x10 =)
i have some questions too about it:
- when i opt for 'vibrate' the sounds for notification and calls automatically defaults to silent. any means of getting around it?
- is there any app available to run JAVA games in it, or any android device there is?

Danne, 31 Aug 2010Beckyshells can you tell us more about battery life. How many days can you get it to hold and ... morebattery live is average. I use it alot (since its new =) with videos, wifi, music, txting, playing and live wallpapers and at least i get a day and a half from it..the battery life may not be the best but the good thing is you can charge it up for about 80 minutes and it's full from zero.

hi im from PH and i have to say that Galaxy 5 (locally identified as GT-I5503) is one of the best phone at this point. It has a speedy CPU that clocks about as fast as iphone 3G and its' interface is very slick and responsive. With right apps in it, it can hold its own against higher end phones.
Interface: 98/100
Audio: 75/100 (mono, but excellent in-ear output)
Video Playback: 90 (can play upto 1400kb/s)
Screen: 80/100 (quite pixelated and not the best in sunlight legibility)
Battery: 80/100
Camera: 75/100 (non-autofocus, tops at 2MP, video at best is 15fps, no led light but it does have a nice range of settings)
Responsiveness: 95/100 It's Capacitive! sometimes lags but it may be due to the mutitasking toll on the CPU
one quirk i have though is that after 5 days of buying it i noticed a 1pixel-row of dead pixel already in its lockscreen. It does vanishes after you went past the lockscreen. Retail package includes stereo wired headset and 2GB memory card.
